NOTICE !
It is recommended to carefully read this owner’s manual before using the product. This will also help the user to prevent using the radio in violation of the regulations
valid in the country where the product is used, as well as to avoid any possible interferences with other services.
NOTICE !
This transceiver is programmable via PC, using the dedicated software (free download at www.intek-radios.com) and the PC interface cable (optional
item). Any programming or modification of the original default setting must be made by a specialised technician or by an authorised service centre. Some
functions of this transceiver might be programmed in violation of the technical rules in force for the use of the VHF and UHF FM bands. It is the user’s
responsibility to check that any modification to the programming will be done in compliance with the current regulations. Any modification to the product,
alteration of the internal circuit, of the external structure of the radio or any programming in violation of the current regulations will automatically void the
product certification and your right to use the product. INTEK S.R.L. declines any responsibility concerning any modification of the product, made by the
user or by a third party, after delivery of the product.
NOTICE !
This transceiver has been factory programmed, in order to use the product immediately after purchase. The programming includes the activation of
channels/frequencies in the VHF and UHF FM Amateur Bands, according to the technical rules in force for the use of this bands.

MOBILE INSTALLATION
To install the transceiver, select a safe, convenient location inside your
vehicle that minimizes danger to your passengers and yourself while the
vehicle is in motion. Consider installing the unit at an appropriate position
so that knees or legs will not strike it during sudden braking of your
vehicle. Try to pick a well ventilated location that is shielded from direct
sunlight.
Install the mounting bracket in the vehicle using the supplied self-

Double check that all screws are tightened to prevent
vehiclevibration from loosening the bracket or transceiver.
Initial Installation
Determine the appropriate angle of the transceiver, using the 3
screw hole positions on the side of the mounting bracket.

3Initial Installation
DC POWER CABLE CONNECTION
Locate the power input connector as close to the transceiver as possible.
MOBILE OPERATION
The vehicle battery must have a nominal rating of 12V. Never
connect the transceiver to a 24V battery. Be sure to use a 12V
vehicle battery that has sufficient current capacity. If the current
to the transceiver is insufficient, the display may darken during
transmission, or transmitting output power may drop excessively.
Route the DC power cable supplied with the transceiver directly
1.
to the vehicle's battery terminals using the shortest path from the
transceiver.
We recommend you do not use the cigarette lighter socket
as some cigarette lighter sockets introduce an unacceptable
voltage drop.
The entire length of the cable must be dressed so it is isolated
from heat, moisture, and the engine secondary (high voltage)
ignition system/ cables.
After installing cable, in order to avoid the risk of damp, please

use heat-resistant tap to tie together with fuse box. Don't forget
to reinforce whole cable.
In order to avoid the risk of short circuit, please cut down

connection with negative (-) of battery, then connect with radio.
Conf rm the correct polarity of the connections, then attach the

power cable to the battery terminals; red connects to the positive
(+) terminal and black connects to the negative (-) terminal.
Use the full length of the cable without cutting off excess even
if the cable is longer than required. In particular, never remove
the fuse holders from the cable.
Reconnect any wiring removed from the negative terminal.

Initial Installation
Do not directly connect the transceiver to an AC outlet.
Use the supplied DC power cable to connect the transceiver
to a regulated power supply.
Do not substitute a cable with smaller gauge wires.
FIXED STATION OPERATION
In order to use this transceiver for fixed station operation, you
will need a separate 13.8V DC power supply (not included), power
supply (SPA-8230) as optional accessories. Please contact local
dealer to require.
The recommended current capacity of your power supply is 12A.
Before connecting the DC power to the transceiver, be sure to
switch OFF the transceiver and the DC power supply.
Do not plug the DC power supply into an AC outlet until you
make all connections.

If the fuse blows, determine the cause, then correct the problem.
After the problem is resolved, replace the fuse. If newly installed
fuses continue to blow, disconnect the power cable and contact your
authorized dealer or an authorized service center for assistance.
Only use fuses of the specified type and rating, otherwise the
transceiver could be damaged.
Before operating, install an efficient, well-tuned antenna. The success
of your installation will depend largely on the type of antenna and its
correct installation. The transceiver can give excellent results if the
antenna system and its installation are given careful attention.
Use a 50Ωimpedance antenna and low-loss coaxial feed-line that
has a characteristic impedance of 50Ω, to match the transceiver input
impedance. Coupling the antenna to the transceiver via feed-lines having
The possible locations of antenna on a car are shown as following:
3Initial Installation
REPLACING FUSES
If you use the transceiver for a long period when the vehicle battery is
not fully charged, or when the engine is OFF, the battery may become
discharged, and will not have sufficient reserves to start the vehicle. Avoid
using the transceiver in these conditions.
Transmitting without first connecting an antenna or other
matched load may damage the transceiver. Always connect
the antenna to the transceiver before transmitting.
All f xed stations should be equipped with a lightning arrester to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and transceiver damage

an impedance other than 50Ωreduces the efficiency of the antenna
system and can cause interference to nearby broadcast television
receivers, radio receivers, and other electronic equipment.
NOTE
NOTE

If you plan to use an external speaker, choose a speaker with an
impedance of 8Ω. The external speaker jack accepts a 3.5 mm
mono (2-conductor) plug.
For voice communications, connect a microphone equipped with
an 8-pin modular plug into the modular socket on the front of the
main unit. Press firmly on the plug until the locking tab clicks. Attach
the supplied microphone hanger in an appropriate location using the
screws included in the screw set.
To use the dedicated software, you must first connect the
transceiver to your PC then using the optional programming cable

If the transceiver has set at higher squelch level, it may fail to hear the
calling. If the Busy and signal strength icon display in left band or right
band, but can not hear the calling, means the signal is with matching
carrier but dis-matching signaling.
In standby, both left and right bands are
able t o receive. When they receive any signal,
the BUSY icon and signal strength icon will appear in the correspondent
area of the LCD. And you can hear the calling
